4. Funcionament

The PM-3300T sawhorses are designed for versatility and can be used with or without an additional wood top.

Using the Steel Top:

For general use, you can place your workpiece directly on the steel top of the sawhorses. The robust steel provides a strong and durable surface.

Attaching a Wood Top (Sacrificial Top):

For tasks that involve cutting or drilling, it is recommended to attach a sacrificial wood top (e.g., 2" x 4" or 2" x 6") to protect the steel surface of the sawhorses. This also provides a surface that can be cut into without damaging the sawhorse itself.

1. Prepare Wood: Cut a 2" x 4" or 2" x 6" piece of wood to the desired length, typically matching the length of the sawhorse top (39 inches). Ensure the wood is straight and free of warps to maintain stability.
2. Alinear i assegurar: Place the wood piece on top of the sawhorse. The sawhorse top is pre-drilled with holes to facilitate easy attachment. Align the wood with these holes.
3. Fixar: Use appropriate screws (not included) to fasten the wood piece securely to the sawhorse through the pre-drilled holes. Repeat for the second sawhorse.

Proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and continued performance of your Bora Portamate Sawhorses:

• Prevenció de l'òxid: The sawhorses feature a rust-resistant powder coat finish. However, to prevent rust, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. If the finish is scratched or chipped, consider touching up the area with rust-inhibiting paint.
• Lubricació: Periodically apply a small amount of lubricant to the folding mechanisms and locking pins to ensure smooth operation.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the sawhorses in a dry environment when not in use. Their folding design allows for compact storage, which also helps protect them from environmental elements.
